Hey! Thanks for the comment on my elephant :-) I used this for the pattern: http://www.hobbyschneiderin.net/portal/showthread.php?t=96490&page=7
It is a German sewing panel, you have to scroll down a little and copy the pattern out of the text. If you print it on an A4 Sheet, you have the size I used. There are 1/2cm seam allowance included, except at the main-part (the sides of the elephant).
I don’t know if you speak German, so this is the translation of the inscriptions on the pattern pieces:
“OHR” = “ear” “Bodenteil” is the stommach of the elephant “Stirn” is the forehead “Schwanz” is the mark for the tail
You just have to sew it together (right sides facing), ears and tail facing to the inside. Leave a foot open for turning the whole thing inside out and stuffing it (The feet need much stuffing, if you want to stand it on his own). Then close the foot by hand and it’s done! :-)
Greetings, Lucia
